Man dies at horror Scots road crash scene after car 'flipped over carriageway'

A man has died in a horror crash that closed a Fife A-road in heavy rainfall amid adverse weather conditions.

The 46-year-old, who was one of the drivers involved in the two-car collision, died at the scene on the A92. Police were called to the Thornton bypass near Kirkcaldy at around 2.20pm on Tuesday.

An eyewitness said a car apparently hit a puddle on the road, and "went over the carriageway" hitting an oncoming car at a high speed.

Sergeant Colin Morrison said: “Our thoughts remain with the family and friends of the man who died at this difficult time.

“Our investigation is continuing and I would urge any witnesses to the crash to contact us as soon as possible.

“We are aware dash-cam footage was posted online locally and I would ask the person with the footage, or any other drivers with footage of the incident to contact us as soon as possible. The information you hold will assist with our investigation into the circumstances of this collision.”

Please contact Police Scotland on 101 quoting reference 1697 of 13 March.
